Sorry to hear all your health-related troubles in the aftermath. Of course, we all know they lied about the air quality; they lied to the first responders as well. I, too, remember the black plume of smoke. I remember closing up all the windows on that warm night because of the terrible toxic odor. What a nightmare!

And who can forget the courageous Hillary Clinton who was concerned because at the very moment of impact, her daughter was jogging “around” the World Trade Center - as if you could actually do that. The lying pant suit didn’t even know the topography of the area.
Oh, and the restaurant that I had my wedding reception in was destroyed on 9/11.
